Silver King Ridge

bex.dawkes, Saturday 8th February, 2025 10:38PM
<p>Good stretch of the legs, but that was about all that was good. Rain crust/surface hoar layer from the last high pressure is 2cm thick, found about 10-12cm down from surface and is widely unsupportive. We heard lots of whumpfing on the way up the skin track. Bad visibility, icy slopes and freezing rain all the way to ridgetop didn't help the already terrible skiing conditions. </p>
